All,

Thank you for your Individual Permit application, dated 11/21/2022 (received 3/3/2023), for the above referenced
project. I have reviewed the information provided and determined that the application is not complete per 33 CFR §
325.1 (d). Please submit the requested information below (via e‐mail is fine, or request a DoD SAFE file exchange link)
1

within 30 days of receipt of this Notification to allow preparation and issuance of a Public Notice as required per 33 CFR
§ 325.3. Otherwise we will consider your application withdrawn and close the file:

1) Section 5.0 of the “Luck Stone Sanford Quarry Permit Request” document references an “access road…being
constructed by others”, and that “the Applicant will tie into the terminus of the public road for the primary
quarry access.” Based on a review of recent aerial photography the Corps is unaware of any previously existing
or newly constructed road in the referenced location. Further, although a Nationwide Permit (NWP) 39
verification was issued by our office on 8/3/2018, for infrastructure related to a proposed rock quarry in the
same general location (SAW-2015-02582) including what appears to be an access road, this NWP 39 verification
expired on 3/18/2022. Lastly, it appears that such an access road would be required for the proposed Luck Stone
Sanford Quarry to function, unless additional information were to be provided to justify independent utility.
Per 33 CFR § 325.1(d)(2), “All activities which the applicant plans to undertake which are reasonably related to
the same project and for which a DA permit would be required should be included in the same permit
application. District engineers should reject, as incomplete, any permit application which fails to comply with
this requirement.” Accordingly, please provide the information necessary to include the associated access road
and its potential impacts to waters of the U.S. in the permit application, or provide sufficient information to
justify that this access road is a single and complete project with independent utility.

Response: The Applicant is aware of an access road being permitted by others that will serve as a multi-user
access from Highway 87. It is our understanding that this road and proposed industrial park is currently being
reviewed and has been assigned SAW-2023-00336. This road has independent utility as it will be constructed to
have a service area greater than one project. The quarry has proposed to tie into the terminus of this road
instead of constructing a separate access road that would have required additional jurisdictional impacts.

2) Section 8.0 of the “Luck Stone Sanford Quarry Permit Request” document states that “Cross-sections of the
proposed impact areas are provided in Appendix C: Selected Design Plans.” However, no plans of any kind are
included in this Appendix. Please provide the referenced information to fully describe the proposed discharges
of dredged or fill material in waters of the U.S. and potentially include in the Public Notice;

Response: Please find cross-sections for each proposed impact included with this response.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Dave Bailey
